… that we’re always questioning and refining. Everyday, we work to continually improve this quality to ensure our cus-tomers’ lifelong enjoyment of each of our optical products. Motivated, dedicated employees are our most important asset. They’re the basis for our success. They make Leica what it is: a co-operative partnership that understands the importance of character.

Our product qualityFor over 100 years, Leica has been synonymous with out-standing quality in optics and engineering. Our technicians give priority to maximum mechanical precision and mini-

mum margin for variation. And our experienced engineers subject each handmade component to strict quality control, accepting only the very best. Combining ruggedness, a long service life and enduring appeal, all Leica binoculars and spotting scopes offer maximum shock resistance and were manufactured to perform at the very highest level – for decades to come.

For us quality is a process …

Making history means …

Dr. Ernst Leitz

... expertly balanced images, down to the finest detail. We achieve this by doing more than boosting the amount of light transmitted through the lens to the eye. All Leica products offer what we consider to be the perfect combi-nation of high light transmission, exceptional color fidelity and ideal contrasts – thanks to optimized stray light suppression – along with intuitive operation and a long service life. Your advantages are crystal clear. If, during twilight, you can discern details in the undergrowth that nobody else can see; if you can recognize the finest struc-tures despite massive backlighting when the sun is low; if you can identify a bird’s precise species by detecting subtle mottling in its plumage - then you know: you are using a Leica.

Our products are the result of over 100 years of knowledge and experience in developing and manufacturing optical systems for cameras, sport optics and microscopy. Our optics designers continuously develop their software for minimizing reflections and stray light, enabling increas-ingly complex simulations. And because our developers are also users, improvements can be tested and implemented directly. Shaped by practical experience, our ergonomic, timeless product design features rugged, precise and extremely reliable mechanics made from the highest qual-ity materials, such as magnesium or titanium.

Everything we create shares the same lofty goal: offering you the perfect visual experience for many years to come !

… setting something in motion. Shaping the future means dedicating yourself to striving for new innovation every single day.

Our story begins with Dr. Ernst Leitz, a passionate nature lover and businessman who decisively influenced the development of our products and still shapes their char-acter today. In May 1907, after three years of research and development, series production of the first binoculars began: the Binocle 6 x 18. These were followed by many other sport optics products, all of inimitable quality – and all born of the same commitment to devising ever-more innovative optics. Over a century of experience, and many exceptional milestones, has placed us in a leading position worldwide. Leica wasn’t just the first choice back then; it continues to be synonymous with high quality, absolute reliability and durability today. Naturally, we’re not going to stop at these achievements, and our work on tomorrow’s innovative technologies continues unabated, as the next chapter of our success story unfolds.

Our quest for the perfect visual experience leads to …

“With a camera, this image is captured by a sensor; with binoculars, the image is stored in your memory – forever.”

Sigrun KammansI was quite overawed when I began my first day of work in 1987. I feel that the lesson I was told back then still plays a crucial role: “Innovations are the consequence of constant dialogue and intense exchange with the users of our products.“ Understanding our customers’ needs is the first step – but for the second, physics comes into play. How do we go about developing a new line of binoc-ulars? What kind of opportunities do we have to expand the natural boundaries of perception? And how can we make the new Noctivid line even better?

Scientific research, new materials and manufacturing methods also offer new opportunities for the improvement of the mechanical and optical components of binoculars. When I started out at Leica, it was virtually impossible to develop binocular systems with more than 80% transmis-sion. Nowadays, we have optical glasses with particularly high transmission properties. In the Noctivid binoculars, we use such glasses for the lenses, but above all for the prisms, where the ray paths through glass are longest. In addition to this, we have also made further improvements to the special coatings that are applied to all lenses and prisms to minimize reflections.

All these improvements contribute to almost lossless trans-mission of the entire visible spectrum and colors of the light entering the binoculars through their optical systems and to the eye. This results in a very bright and color-neutral viewing image. People often ask me whether this is suitable for observation during the day or night. The answer is: for

both, eminently. We naturally also analyze them according to the requirements of international standards and norms, e.g. with transmission measurement equipment. In the particular case of our Noctivid binoculars, in terms of color fidelity and rendition, we even come extraordinarily close to the so-called achromatic locus, in other words, the point of absolute color neutrality.

Everything is well engineered, impeccable. The secret behind such perfection is revealed by the lesson learnt on my first day at work. Teamwork is essential in the devel-opment of binoculars. The optical systems of the Noctivid, for example, were designed by my colleague Michael Hartmann. For the Noctivid line, he actually managed to further improve the already exceptional resolving powers our HD-Plus binoculars are known for. The bright and clear viewing image is now richer in contrast and even sharper.

Here at Leica Camera AG, synergy between our work and that of the photographic lens designers brings significant benefits for both sides. The expectations to be fulfilled by a camera lens are very similar. Customers for both product lines expect best contrast, finest resolution of details and the ability to see their subjects in what comes as close as possible to 3D – in both cases, a perfect image. The only difference: In the case of a camera, this image is captured by a sensor and stored while, in the case of a pair of binoculars, it is captured by the eyes and stored in your memories – eternally.

Behind the scenes.How a pair of binoculars is made.


Inspired by nature and its perfect balance, from abilities that are essential to survival in various habitats, the Noctivid also possesses a perfect balance of the best character-istics from more than a century of experience of optical excellence and precision engineering. Its incomparable resolving power promises unique viewing experiences with clear-cut and pin-sharp contours, dazzling contrast and unrivalled brilliance.

Images without globe effect Particularly in the case of binoculars, we must take the so-called globe effect into account. Already familiar from the early days of telescope technology, the middle of the image affected by the globe effect frequently appears significantly closer to the viewer than the edges. Panning across a scene with such a telescope gives the impression of a glass ball rolling through the image. This effect is a result of the physiology of the human eye and is particularly pronounced in binoculars with strong image field flatness. We take this effect into consideration when designing out optical systems and ensure that the eventual user enjoys a natural and undisturbed visual experience when viewing a scene by the appropriate positioning of lens elements within the optical system.

Viewing behaviour and the power of the eye to accommodateWith the particularly large oculars and long eye-relief of the Noctivid binoculars, every user, either with or with-out glasses, quickly and easily finds the ideal position for viewing through the oculars. Simultaneously, the already outstanding closest viewing distance of 1.9 meters can be significantly reduced by the accommodation capability of the user’s eyes – i.e. the dynamic adaptation of the refrac-tive index within the eye.

Precise interaction of optics and precision engineeringLens elements must be positioned with absolute preci-sion at the right distances from one another in the optical system and must be precisely centred in the tubes of the binoculars. To ensure this, and to guarantee that the viewing image is not degraded by false light, our optical designers work very closely with our precision engineers and constructors of the mechanical components. They take advantage of the latest technologies, for example to ensure perfect focusing with consistently high resolving power, or to keep the construction as light and as compact as possible. In the production process, permissible tolerances are frequently measured in thousandths of millimeters. Despite this, the construction of the Noctivid still resists the most extreme stresses and rough handling. Our customer may watch ivory gulls in a snowstorm just as well as gigantic herds of zebra in the middle of the African savannah. Such versatile, robust and resilient pieces of equipment can only be made when we utilize only the finest, most modern, most resilient and hard wearing materials.

Fast and precise focusingFocusing is extremely precise and it takes only two turns of the focusing wheel to shift the focus from the closest distance of 1.9 meters to infinity. At the same time, the large, ergonomically located focus wheel with excellent grip allows delicate and precise focusing for even the smallest differences in distance. In true Leica tradition, diopter compensation is integrated in the focusing wheel, can be securely locked and is easily visible through a viewing window.

Leica Noctivid.Progress with a clear perspective.

Distilled from 110 years of experience. Inspired by the Athene noctua, the symbol of wisdom, knowledge and insight, the Leica Noctivid are the best binoculars we’ve ever made. Stylish and compact, they offer the perfect balance of attributes for crystal clear seeing experiences. Easy one-handed use, large eyepieces, images of incredible depth and plasticity, clean contrasts and the perfect combination of light transmission and color fidelity. Unparalleled viewing.

LEICA NOCTIVID.UNPARALLELEDVIEWING EXPERIENCE.

OBSERVATION I 13

A century of knowledge has come to life.Today, more than a century of experience and expertise in the development of optical devices for long-distance observation, microscopes and cameras has been brought together in a new generation of Leica binoculars – the Noctivid family. Not only compact in size, stylish and ele-gant, but also unbelievably robust and resilient. The true milestones are however set by the mechanical construction and optical systems of this new family of Leica binoculars. In the case of its optical qualities, the Noctivid unites the best of all the most innovative and proven technologies at our disposal.

The Schott HT™ (High Transmission) glasses ensure the amazingly natural color rendition and exceptional trans-mission values of the Noctivid line. Extremely complex and innovative baffle systems for the suppression of stray light guarantee maximum contrast and an absolute minimum of stray light. New, high-temperature plasma deposition processes for highest-quality coatings ensure perfectly balanced transmission characteristics at an outstanding level throughout the entire waveband of visible light. These leads to even better color-neutrality in the viewing image in daylight hours and in the unfavourable conditions of the late twilight hours and under overcast skies.

High-contrast, brillant and razor-sharp: the perfect balance.

The modification of the radii of the lens surfaces made it possible to achieve additional, significant improvements to the sharpness at the edges of the viewing image without negative effects on resolving power. A further result of all these improvements is a much more plastic viewing

experience. Thanks to the perfect and consistent harmo-nization of an entire spectrum of modern technologies, Noctivid binoculars deliver an impressively natural viewing experience that is as plastic as seen with the human eye – only better.


“Look up and enjoy!”David Lindo

Fascination observation.How to be an urban birder.What does a young boy growing up in North London do? Exploring the widlife in front of his door, certainly! This might sound somewhat strange to town people, but birds were the things I became fascinated with most. Unfortunate-ly, I didn’t have a mentor to take me out into the countryside. So I had to find wildlife on my doorstep. Watching over my back garden in North London every morning before school, I was astonished at the array of species that passed through including unexpected birds like lesser spotted woodpecker, reed bunting and goldcrest. Thus my urban birding was born. I have stayed with a motto to this day: Look up and enjoy!

Check the goings on in your garden and start staring out of the office window watching for any avian action – although try not to make it appear obvious as it could get you into trouble! Leica Ultravid 8 x 20 compact binoculars are great for watching backyard bird activity from the comfort of your home. Despite their optical excellence they are so small that they can be practically hidden in your hands.

Feed the birdsGardens are great training grounds for the apprentice urban birder. If you put out food for the local birds, your backyard may become a veritable fast food restaurant. Just stick a couple of nut containers or seed feeders out and wait for them to be discovered. Remember to place your feeders

in the open away from bushes and fences were predators could lurk. Eventually, they may allow close approach and you will be able to observe them in the mornings from your kitchen window through sleepy eyes. A pair of Ultravid 10 x 42 HD-PLUS binoculars will bring you even closer to the birds to show you their full splendor.

Retune your mindSome people find the thought of watching birds in built up areas incongruous. You will need to start seeing your local urban environment as how a bird might see a city environ-ment. Start seeing buildings as rocky outcrops filled with crevices and ledges and imagine that each green spot in the city is actually a rich nature reserve for birds. Once you have convinced yourself of that then you will start noticing birds that you never expected to see.

Find a patchYour transition to urban birder extraordinaire is nearly com-plete, but no birder is a proper birder without a local patch. Find an area close to your home or place of work and start watching it regularly. Get to know the local resident birds and over the course of a year you will notice changes with the different seasonal visitors making appearances. When you start loving this patch, you know you have truly become an urban birder.

You will experience a lot more when you watch the wildlife through your binoculars!

5:00 a.m. – for the past half hour, the zebra-striped jeep has been speeding down bumpy roads along the edge of Ngorongoro Crater. I envy my neighbor Gert, snoring on the seat beside me. We’re bouncing along in the back of the jeep and he’s sleeping like a log. Outside, the Tanzanian night is still pitch dark; but soon the sun is going to rise over Ngorongoro Crater. While we are driving, two green dots suddenly light up on the road ahead. The driver slowly puts on the brakes and comes to a standstill.

“Sir, sir, your binoculars, please!” Darweshi, our guide, asks for my Trinovid 8x42 HD. “Are you sure? You hardly see further than three meters.” Gert has woken up and is staring into the darkness ahead, as excited as I am. We actually have no idea what to expect. A spotted hyena, a warthog, or perhaps another Thomson’s gazelle? It must be something special – Darweshi quickly takes my binoculars. A few seconds later, he gives it back, whispering excitedly: “Leopard, leopard!”

We can’t wait to see the silhouette a bit better. Gert and I butt heads as we try to look past the front seats and out

the windshield, fascinated by the glowing green dots. But without any binoculars, we only saw more of the pitch dark. “Sir, why don’t you use the binoculars!” Darweshi insists, and he’s right – it’s as if we’d switched on the lights outdoors. The big cat’s silhouette becomes clearly visible. The jeep’s weak headlamps provide enough light for Trinovid HD to reveal the beautiful pattern of contrasting spots on the animal’s fur. Wow, I hadn’t dared to hope that we’d see a leopard! Slowly and elegantly, the predatory cat turns its head, leaves the road and lets us pass. “Yes, sir, today we’ll see lots of wonderful things!”

We laugh, elated. I had wondered whether an early morning adventure while on vacation would be worthwhile, but now my doubts have vanished into thin air. “I never thought that the binoculars would let us see so much more, even when it’s so dark”, Gert admits. “Oh yes, everyone on safari should bring good binoculars along. You don’t want to stare into the dark for two hours when you go on a safari, do you? You will experience a lot more when you watch the wildlife through your binoculars!” Darweshi chuckles and already sees another savanna’s inhabitant ...

Into the wild.Behind the dark.


With the new Trinovid HD, you’re right up close –

everywhere and anytime.

Did you know ...

that the global breeding population of the spoon-billed sandpiper has already fallen to only 200 pairs ? The total population in the wild is estimated to be only around 400 individual birds. The WWT has dedicated its efforts to rescuing this incredible little bird. It works in close cooperation with local and international partners on a conservation programme that includes providing aid to the local people in the Asian wintering grounds to remove their dependency on trapping birds for food. In the breeding areas, it works with partners to search for breeding sites, and helps the sandpipers to produce more fledglings by hatching eggs and rearing chicks in safety from natural predators, before releasing them back into the wild. The WWT is also the world’s only or-ganisation actively involved in looking after a population of the spoon-billed sandpiper in captivity, at its Slim-bridge headquarters in England. This captive population will act as a ‘safety net’ to prevent the species extinction, and will produce birds that can be reintroduced to the wild to boost the small remaining population.

The Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust (WWT) is one of the world’s largest and most respected wetland conservation organisations working globally to safeguard wetlands for wildlife and people alike. Founded in 1946 by Sir Peter Scott, the WWT today runs a network of nine UK wetland centres including globally important wetland nature re-serves and complements this with conservation work to save wetlands and their wildlife worldwide.

… are the ones most easily missed. And they’re irretriev-able. With the Leica digiscoping system, you observe the fascinating world of animals and plants in razor-sharp, brillant images – as if you were right up close.

Back in 1994, Leica launched the world’s first high-perfor-mance spotting scopes for terrestrial observation. These products featured high magnifications, broad fields of view and an imaging performance that remains outstanding, even by current standards. The proven variants – angled or straight viewing with 62 mm or 82 mm front lens diameters – remain in our product portfolio to this day.

Our ambitious goal is to always stand at the pinnacle of research, combining state-of-the-art imaging performance

and the very best mechanics for a unique visual experi-ence. Today, more than ever before, our products provide uncompromising flexibility, brillant optics and superior contrasts. Highest-resolution imaging at magnifications of up to 90 x ? Not a problem for the APO-Televid with the 1.8 x extender. And all with exceptionally compact dimensions, intuitive operation and – thanks to the 25 x–50 x WW ASPH. eyepiece – particularly large fields of view.

In addition, Leica is one of a few optics specialists world-wide offering perfectly matched systems: from the powerful spotting scope, to the crisp eyepiece, to the first-class camera. These products form a cohesive unit – the ideal prerequisite for high-end observing and digiscoping.

The best moments …

Spotting scopes & digiscoping.

With Leica’s APO-Televid spotting scopes, you’ll enjoy the minutest details in razor-sharp focus. The fluoride lenses and the apochromatic system ensure highest contrasts, optimum color neutrality and minimal color fringing. These scopes offer the widest possible field of view over the entire magnification range, along with crisply detailed resolution and maximum stray-light suppression. In addition, the proven Leica dual-focus system allows two different focusing ratios: the rapid focusing required for moving objects, as well as the fine, precise focusing that digiscoping demands. Ideal for intensifying all of your viewing experiences, even those from a great distance.

Thanks to the brillant optics and the exquisite contrasts, even high-definition images at high magnifications are no problem. All four models feature impressively compact dimensions, logical and intuitive handling, and amazingly broad fields of view – together with the matched 25x–50x WW ASPH. eyepiece. A rubber-armored magnesium hous-ing makes these spotting scopes extremely rugged, the dirt and water repellent AquaDura® lens coating ensures a clear view at all times, while nitrogen filling reliably pre-vents internal fogging.

What’s more, the inner optics are protected by an additional, optically neutral front lens glass. In the APO Televid 82 (available in a straight or angled version), an exceptionally bright 82 mm objective delivers extremely rich images. Astounding details are vis-ible even under the most unfavorable viewing conditions. The APO-Televid is predestined for professional digiscoping – the fascinating world of wildlife can be observed in crisp quality and captured forever in detail-rich photographs. Outstanding optical performance results in natural, brillant colors across the entire field of view. The more compact APO Televid 65 straight or angled spotting scope is the ideal companion for long, demanding treks and exhaust-ing alpine ascents. With a short build of 11.8 in/30 cm, it weighs a mere 39.3 oz/1115 g. All APO-Televid spotting scopes are particularly rugged, as any shocks or impacts are effectively absorbed by a resistant magnesium-alloy body and rubber armoring.

Tips: Digiscoping with a Leica.

Reduced to the essentials and built to make perfect pic-tures: Leica cameras also reveal their unique advantages in the field of professional digiscoping. Particularly when light-ing conditions become difficult and when circumstances beyond your control present a real challenge. The premium quality Leica cameras, lenses and spotting scopes, which offer focal lengths between 800 and 3500 mm, make the real difference at moments like these.

Extremely stable tripods and tripod heads are essential when shooting with such enormous focal lengths. Tip: take your time to get it right when composing your picture. Your main subject doesn’t always have to be in the middle of your picture to attract attention to it. Make good use of faster shutter speeds and try to avoid anything slower than 1/250 s. If your picture is too dark, compensate for

it by changing the ISO setting on your camera. Noise-free exposures are possible at ISO 400 with the APS-C sensor used in Leica cameras; Leica cameras with full-frame sensors let you use even higher ISO values without your pictures suffering from image noise. Use the continuous shooting option for moving subjects. When using less sta-ble tripods or panning heads, pressing the shutter release can sometimes lead to an unsharp picture – in continuous shooting mode, the second and following pictures will be sharp. Only the last picture could be unsharp again, from taking your finger off the button.

Concentrate on your picture and use an auxiliary view-find-er when your camera doesn’t have an integrated finder. You won’t be distracted from your subject when focusing or disturbed by reflections on the monitor screen.

* Due to the image circle of the optical system (adapter + eyepiece + spotting scope), some vignetting appears, e.g. the format edges of the 35 mm film equivalent remain black.


Norbert Rosing. On an expedition with the APO-Televid.

Read more about Norbert Rosing’s experiences at blog.leica-birding.com

Leica: Norbert, this spring, you participated in a photo expedition to Hudson Bay, in Canada. What exactly awaited you there ?Norbert Rosing: Our task was to capture the wintry mood, the snow drifts, the timber line, the northern lights and, of course, the polar bears. At the very beginning of spring, the female polar bears emerge from the caves where they’ve spent the past several months. I call this the “holy grail” of wildlife photography. For the first time in their lives, the cubs experience the warmth of the sun’s rays. Logistically and technically, however, these observations are a huge chal-lenge. Everything needs to be precisely planned, prepared and coordinated. The bear dens are spread across a huge area of 7200 km2. Within six weeks the female bears leave the area, this makes our clock tick very loud.

Leica: That sounds difficult. How do you find the bears’ dens in such a large area, if there are no tracks to be found ?Norbert Rosing: We depend on the knowledge of our local guides. Everyday, whatever the weather, they take their snowmobiles out across the tundra and look for bear tracks. They look everywhere: near streams, behind trees and be-hind large drifts of snow. They sometimes use the Leica APO-Televid spotting scope first to scan the scene. Once they’ve found a family, they radio us. When we’re lucky, the mother bears tolerate our presence – but at least half of them make us understand that we’d better make off into the distance.

Leica: Listening to your story, it sounds as if you got very close to the bears. Aren’t polar bears potentially aggressive, particularly mother bears with cubs? Norbert Rosing: That’s right, and “close” is a relative term here. For these shots, we need lenses with long focal lengths, ideally 600 to 800 millimeters. I used the Leica SL with the R module system. We approach the bear families with care, keeping a distance of at least 109 yards (100 meters) – that’s the “Parks Canada” rule – and we always stay near the vehicles. The guides monitor the immediate surroundings and check for polar bears that could approach us. The APO-Televid spotting scopes are ideal for observing and digiscoping over long distances. But Polar bears are true artists when it comes to blending in with the landscape. For this reason, spotting scopes and binoculars must be

absolutely color-neutral, and even the tiniest contrasts in the surroundings need to be noticeable. Our guides were able to recognize every movement, leaving me free to focus on photographing and filming.

Leica: So the bear families act naturally, although humans are present ?Norbert Rosing: Oh yes. We gathered first-hand evidence this year: We had been observing a family of bears for some time; they were quite a distance away from their cave. Suddenly a rare weather pattern surprised us and within a few minutes, the temperature had risen from -22°F to +43°F (-30°C to +6°C) and rain was pouring down. Ice covered our clothing, camera lenses, spotting scopes and binoculars, forming icicles up to 6 inches (15 cm) long. And then the mother bear did something that very few people have had the chance to see – she began licking her cubs to keep them warm and prevent them from freezing to death! If we had irritated the bear, she most probably would not have displayed this type of behavior. As we were watching, she finished her “rescue mission” and then calmly nursed her two cubs.

Leica: Impressive! Is this still special for an experienced arctic explorer like you ?Norbert Rosing: Absolutely! This trip was full of incredible wildlife observations and amazing northern lights. We broughtmany hours of 4K video material home and thou-sands of unforgettable images that we’ll soon sharewith the world – through our books, presentations and brochures.

In focus: Norbert RosingFor over 20 years, Norbert Rosing has been traveling the world as a professional wildlife and nature photographer. His breathtaking shots of the Canadian Arctic, particularly of polar bears, have been published in many magazines. Even today, he still prefers analog photography. For many years now, he has given presentations about his journeys,

the realm of the polar bears, and life as a nature pho-tographer. In addition, he has published numerous books, calendars and DVDs. His most recent book “Up Here” – featuring 150 color photographs of his far-north adventures on 160 pages – has just been released.

The basic Equivalent Horizontal Range (EHR) ballistics function is included, giving you a significantly greater certainty of ac-curacy – uphill or down. Whether over longer distances or in low-light – the Geovid R models help you clearly detect and identify animals at any time. They combine optimum optics and proven laser technology with a perfected me-chanics concept. It’s easy to see why these are the ideal binoculars for entering the Leica Geovid world.

The Geovid-R can be operated intuitively, without any knowledge of ballistics, and offer comfortable viewing along with classic good looks. The binoculars are designed for extreme conditions, so they’re always ready for action – whether for heavy-duty use or in unfavorable weather.

market

For reliable shots –uphill or down.Small, lightweight and pocket-sized, CRF Rangemasters by Leica fit inside any pack, so they‘re always at hand for your observations or distance measurement.

Flexible, easy to handle, and with basic ballistics functional-ity – the CRF 2000-B is the best entry-level model for those who value reliable results on rough terrain.

When the animal is uphill or downhill from your position, it’s essential to ensure that distance measurements are cor-rected accurately. The CRF 1600-R measures both, linear distance and horizontal distance. The remarkably versatile new CRF 2000-B features three modes of application, twelve ballistic curves, and three different zeroing ranges to deliver more accurate ballistics information than ever before. A single press of a button displays the distance to target and the equivalent horizontal range; the unit of measurement can be changed as easily.

Additional features include a wide field of view, allowing rapid detection even at long range, and an innovative LED display with automatic brightness control. This display is particularly helpful in difficult lighting conditions, as it provides clear information without obscuring the animals.
